This is a great place! Close to everything (city, bus, MRT), yet in a quiet local neighborhood with lots of local food street vendors. As a solo female I felt very safe walking the area any time of day & night. The room was a bit dark (only one small window). It is small & neat & while the furniture could do with an upgrade, it was more than adequate & great value for the price. The bed was firm but comfortable. This accommodation is in one of 4 buildings down a quiet lane together, managed by the iSanook residence. There is a hostel in the building next door with a small convenience store/laundry attached & across the lane-way is the residence with the pool, Jacuzzi, cafe & large foyer with comfy chairs to sit & use the free WiFi (extra cost to have it in the room) It was great to be able to use these facilities during my stay!
The extra cost for electricity was ok, I ran the aircon at night only for around 10 hours and minimal use of lights and short showers for an additional cost of 600baht ($25) for a week.
I would highly recommend & definitely will return on future trips to Bangkok!!!
